Abstract

When vibroseis oscillations are excited, along with the main signal, harmonics are generated. They travel into the Earth and, like the main signal, interact with the target reflectors. Harmonics have a wider than that of the main signal frequency band, so they can be used to increase the resolution of the seismic data. To do this, the signal-related data should be separated from the harmonic-related data. This problem can be successfully solved by the previously proposed optimization recursive filtering algorithm, which, however, was developed only for linearly frequency-modulated signals. In this work, the algorithm is generalized to the case of amplitude modulation and nonlinear frequency modulation. Examples of application of the technique to increase the resolution of real vibroseis data are given.
